A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Most breweries do some fairly standard lagers and ales in addition to their experimental selection. I never got the outrage over this - if you don't like it then don't drink it. There's an entire case filled with basic macrobrew at the grocery store. Nobody is forcing you to drink some blood orange, acorn grist beer finished on gummy worms and marshmallows.
because 90% of the beers in my craft beer store are undrinkable crap. and then the industries whines abotu nobody is buying beer.
well, maybe more of the 10% of beer i want to drink? diversity your offers for quality products instead of another 8% DIPA that tastes like horse farts?
Right, and before craft beer your only option was Bud, Coors and maybe Yuengling or Blue Moon. There was no such thing as a craft beer store or local brewery. The reality is that breweries make these beers because it is what customers buy, and despite that, someone like you still has many more options than you would have had in the early 2000s. Even in terms of the import market, I bet your craft beer store has a bunch of German and Belgian beers you could hardly find in the US before the craft beer boom created more interest in that kind of thing.
As a millennial this is pabst erasure
How quickly can we erase Pabst?
before craft brew there were micro brews. i have been drinking that stuff since the late 90s. Back then Sam Adams was 'craft' beer.
